Not a simulator, but an action/strategy game based on being a gunner on a fantasy-themed zeppelin.

The only Zep game I remember was the MS game called Crimson Skies. I think that was the name.

Your home base was a zeppelin.

I got it a few days ago. Wow. It's really a simulation. I started reading the manual but so far, I don't know how to play it so far. Very complex[:D].

Excellent. I've never played it but have always wanted it.
On the boardgamegeek site there is a link to a quick reference sheet for the rules. It may help.

I remember thinking that one interesting idea for a solitaire wargame would be to create something perversely complex. Something that would involve player doing a lot of stuff and learning a lot of stuff as there wouldn't be other players getting in the way.
Apparently someone else got that idea too[:D].

Wow... The only simulator I can think of that would be more boring than a Zeppelin simulator would be one simulating snail racing...
Another smart ass hate filled comment.Do you ever say anything positive?

I wonder if he's just trolling or if he's genuine.

There was an old Yaquinto boardgame called "Flying Circus" I think. It had blimps. They had fighters attached to them for defense. On some kind of hook. If they were attacked they'd drop the fighters to fight off the attackers. Also, there was a blimp base in San Diego in the WWII era, it was in the lagoon just South of where the Del Mar fairgrounds are now.
History began July 4th, 1776. Anything before that was a mistake.
